COAP 2024 Registration Important Points
Candidates must go through the brochure before they go for COAP counselling registration. Some important points to note are:
- Once you have completed your COAP registration with one of your GATE scores (preferably the highest one), it is necessary to add any additional GATE scores when you log in to the portal for the first time.
- After the COAP registration process is complete, you will receive your user ID via email and an SMS will be sent to your registered mobile number. If you are unable to see the email in your inbox, please check your spam folder. The password sent by mobile may take some time to reach you due to network issues with the service provider.
- If you have multiple GATE scores and are unable to add the scores of previous years in COAP, it may be because your current name (as per GATE 2024 scorecard) does not match the names given in previous years' GATE scorecards. In such a case, please check your names with all the GATE scorecards and if there is a mismatch, write to us with the subject "Name mismatch". Please include your name and registration number year-wise in the email and wait for a couple of working days for us to resolve your issue.
